There is a small test program here:
http://oscomp.hu/depot/testhttps.pas
It can be used like this:Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]window.onload =
function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section");
if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i
= 0; i fpc testhttps.pastesthttps https://youtube.com youtube.htmlThis
works under Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris, but fails under OpenBSD with
the following error message:Code: Text  [Select][+][-]window.onload =
function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section");
if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i
= 0; i Exception: ESocketError: Host name resolution for "youtube.com"
failed.GET failed. Response code: 0Here is a screenshot too:

I've found this very similar topic, but despite the marker, the
problem was not solved in there at all, only workarounds have been
introduced. I already have my own workaround, so i would like to know
if this can be solved, or this is a bug in FPC and can only be worked
around.
